NOAH ROBINSON.
Son of Jonathan Robinson (842) and Mercy Chase. Born in Stratham, N. H., 7 May, 1757. Married, first, Nancy Wiggin (844); second, Elizabeth Walker Osborne (845), in Portsmouth, N. H., May, 1805; third, Rosamond Taylor.
Noah Robinson enlisted as Private about May, 1775, in the Second New Hampshire Regiment, commanded by Colonel Enoch Poor; promoted to Corporal and Sergeant in 1775; Ensign and Second Lieutenant in 1776; First Lieutenant in 1777; CaptainLieutenant in 1779. He was in the battle of Trenton, New Jersey, 26 December, 1776, where over nine hundred Hessians were made prisoners; in the battle of Princeton, New Jersey, 3 January, 1777; in the first battle at Saratoga, New York (no doubt intended for the first engagement at Stillwater, 15 September, 1777), where he was severely wounded and sent to the hospital. Being in the hospital several months, he sufficiently recovered so as to join his regiment. He was in the battle of Monmouth, New Jersey, 12 June, 1778, when he was so overcome by the prevailing excessive heat that his health was impaired to such a degree as to prevent labor without great pain. Upon the reorganization of the army, in 1781, he became a supernumerary, and returned home. Soon after return from the army, 1781, he married Nancy Wiggin (844), of Stratham, N. H. In 1782 he joined the privateer Bucannier as Commander of Marines, and made a cruise to the English Channel, which was very successful. About 1794 he moved from Stratham to Epping. In 1789-90 he settled in New Hampton and built the Homestead (see engraving) in the nineties. Died in New Hampton, N. H., 10 February, 1827.
